IT Professionals,
On March 15, 2023, EMA will add a scheduled task to remove ‘Domain Users’ group from any other AD Group at IU. This is being done to help reduce token bloat, improve security, and make AD more responsive. ‘Domain Users’ will be automatically removed from any group on a regular cadence.
Action Required
If you maintain a group that utilizes Domain Users as a member, action is required. In most cases, specific accounts and/or groups can be added instead of the Domain Users group. If access needs to be given to everyone, EMA recommends investigating alternative methods that work best for your environment. In some cases, using built-in groups such as the ‘Everyone’ group or using the Domain Users group directly may be the best solution.
If you have questions, you may contact Tier 2 support at sct2@iu.edu.
